    Kentucky Governor Blames Video Games for Florida School Shooting

    The problem is mental illness. A normal well adjusted person can play violent video games without it affecting thier behavior. A sick person however is not the same. Its the same argument for guns. A gun in the hands a normal person is ok, but not the same for a sick person. Banning video games...

    Hulu Begins Serving Up 60FPS Streaming Content

    Thats true about netflix. They have great adult originals and great kid originals but not much in between. I love their adult stuff but its hard to find time to watch on the 4k screen with 3 kids running around.

    Electric Cars Likely Won't Save You Money

    You’re still powering an electric car with fossil fuel. The overwhelming majority of our power comes from coal.

    After 15 Years, eBay Plans to Cut Off PayPal as Its Main Payments Processor

    This is kind of fake news. The agreement goes both ways. Nothing changes for PayPals branded payment processing. The unbranded transaction processing will change. However, this releases paypal from several anti competition clauses in their previous contract with ebay. Its really a win for paypal...

    Apple to Invest $350B in US over 5 Years & Pay $38B in Repatriation Taxes

    Wow. First of all, Joe’s paychecks are not raped. A portion determined by him filling out his w4 is withheld then when he files his taxes with the IRS and takes all the deductions he is entitled to the government refunds any excess that was withheld. Second, nothing that Apple has done was...

    “The Last Jedi” Is the Most Divisive Star Wars Movie Between Fans and Critics

    Rian Johnson shit on Luke and the Skywalker legacy. He shit on Raes backstory. He shit on Snokes backstory by making him a super powerful chump. He ruined Star Wars.

    The FCC Has Repealed Net Neutrality

    You are embarrasingly ignorant. The FCC is an unelected body of bureacrats who have no authority to write law. Laws are written by congress.

    The FCC Has Repealed Net Neutrality

    Im so tired of the posts by megalith. What happened to to the [H] I used to know? You know, the one that existed just fine on the internet for 15 years BEFORE your so called Net Neutrality.

    Games Could Be Hit Hard by Net Neutrality’s Death

    This is the republican position. The FCC doesnt have the authority to do what it did. It needs to be law.

    Games Could Be Hit Hard by Net Neutrality’s Death

    Quit with the politics? You are advocating a political position: government control of the internet. For all your good intentions the end result will be an unelected bunch of political tools in charge of the internet and what can and cant be. It took 40 years for cellular phone tech to make it...

    Ajit Pai and the FCC Want It to Be Legal for Comcast to Block BitTorrent

    While I agree with much of your argument, I dont believe in using unelected bureacrats to regulate anything. The FCC has been politicized and will change its tune with every new administration. Giving them the power to regulate also gives them the power to deregulate. If you want stability and...

    Ajit Pai and the FCC Want It to Be Legal for Comcast to Block BitTorrent

    Comcast built, owns and maintains their network. Why should the government have the authority to tell them what they can and cant do? The problem is the lack of competition, which would push back against these practices. Dont like comcast? Go to the competitor. However, due to more government...

    “Gamers Aren’t Overcharged; They’re Undercharged,” Says Wall Street Analyst

    What he doesnt seem to get is that the video game market is made up of mostly millenials, and millenials dont have any money and think they are entitled to free music, movies and games. Game publishers are walking a fine line with their prices right now. The future is to abstract the cost of...
